My question is simple.

With Windows 10 out, which opened my eyes on the spying most software do on us, I now want to keep Windows 7 and make sure none of my information is sent.

I already have a VPN to make a false IP address different everyday. However if possible I'd still want my browser to not be sending any information about me. My search, but especially my facebook account user and hotmail, because with that they can identify you if they want.

Is there a way to do so?

Yes there is a way, unplug your computer from the internet.

If you do a search, the search info is sent to the search engine site. If you go to Facebook you send them your info and they share it with whoever their user agreement lets them share your info with. Once you sign up for all those services your information is already out there. You can try to minimize what you send, just don't sign up for every free thing you see and give out your name, don't use illegal software or downloads as many of those sites also contain viruses and spyware. Every time you see an add in Facebook, your info has been shared, which is perfectly fine as you agree to that when you agree to use Facebook.
